I realize that the Astros are not very good, but this pitcher has lost twice as many games as he has won, has had a haed time staying off the DL, and from what I have been able to read, has a fragile psyche when it comes to the media.
Easy decision Amaro, stay away.

Now I hope he gets traded to an AL team and he has to pitch in CBP in the world series.
(Mainly because that would mean that the Phillies are in the world series, it would be nice to see the phillies fans make him cry too, but really just want the phillies to get to the WS)

The Feelies seem to be finding themselves lately and gearing up for a real run – surprising only in that it took them this long. I guess drinking all those canola oil and EDT cocktails finally loosened up their arteries enough to go for it.

Mon, 26 Jul 2010 16:09:22 +0000http://localhost/wp/nbchbt/?p=7810#comment-61299Who can blame him? Were I a player I wouldn’t want to go to the east coast for one, and given that, Philly specifically. Of course I wouldn’t want to go to Detroit either, man that town is a mess. Roy’s from Mississippi, and while I’m sure he’d like to hit the playoffs, I doubt he wants to go if it means he’s miserable with his living situation. One thing I’ve learned is that quality of life means as much as salary or career advancement, and you couldn’t get me off the west coast for any amount of cash or opportunity.

No one’s going to take him with that God-awful salary, but hey, you signed on the dotted line and there’s no way he’d accept less so too bad. Unless someone’s stupid enough to restructure over say 30 years, something like Bobby Bonilla getting paid like $1 million/yr by the Mets until like 2019. HAHAHAHA.

Mon, 26 Jul 2010 15:49:08 +0000http://localhost/wp/nbchbt/?p=7810#comment-61297Well………. Fvck him too….. We’ll see if he’d rather stay in “going nowhere fast” Houston. That doesn’t make much sense to me since no one has spoken like that since the days of Rowand. It’s good enough for Roy Halladay but not Roy Oswalt? Hmmm?
